I require your expertise. I have just installed EasyPHP. When i run EasyPHP the Apache server starts correctly but the MySQL database doesn't seem to be starting. When i start EasyPHP i just get the message "Unexpected end of Mysql...see log file ?" The word stopped is placed against the Mysql button on the main. Console

I have looked on the FAQ section of the EasyPHP website which give the advice that there may be An older configuration file from a previous installation of Mysql left on the computer, so i renamed the file c:\my.cnf to c:\mya.cnf

But the problem still persists.

If you guys know what i could do to correct this problem that would be great as i am new to PHP and Mysql.

Thanks mate a downloaded the file and replaced the existing php_mysql.dll with the downloaded one.

But after restarting the problems still persists and i get the same message" Cannot load mcrypt extension. Please check your PHP configuration.Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.51a differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.30. This may cause unpredictable behavior."
